The Health and Safety Commission's main focus for YR 2015 is Active Healthy Aging. The focus is on Healthy Lifestyles, Mind/Brain Health and Vaccinations.

Healthy Lifestyles

Engaging in a healthy lifestyle requires you to take steps in positive behaviors in different aspects of everyday life such as eating healthy, being active, protecting yourself and family, managing stress, and getting check-ups on a regular basis.

The scope of the Commission's outreach includes vaccinations for children, adolescents and adults. The Commission supports any efforts that would maximize the protection of the community through vaccinations. The Commission is committed to educating community members about the benefits of vaccinations and alerting them to the individual and global health consequences of preventable and dangerous diseases. Community members are encouraged to discuss vaccinations and re-vaccinations with their health care professionals.

Vaccination vs. Immunization

A vaccination is what gets administered to the body and immunization is the process that occurs in the body after the vaccination.
